I promised the maker that I wouldn't tell anyone, sorry. It fits very well, needs a couple tweaks before i head to the convention tomorrow night, but all is good soo far, and thanks

none taken, i know it's not for everyone. A lot of people don't understand it and a bunch don't want to understand it. It's all for fun for me and it's always for a good cause. i got home last night from the convention and they raised almost $13,000 for the U.S. War Dogs Foundation. I love seeing the look on peoples faces and especially the kids, it's like a visit to disney world for them and they love it. Everyone has something that they like to do for fun, and half the time it's a little quirky, and this is mine

I really didnt get much of a chance to take many pictures cause i spent alot of time walking around in my costume. My freinds took pics that are on facebook and stuff, I'll post some of those. The attendance total for fursuitters was 265 and costumed people was about 450. They raised almost $13,000 for the U.S. War Dogs Foundation. Between charity auctions, registrations, and donations. Someone donated a full head to toe fursuit to the charity auction and the winning bid was $2,500!!!

Here's a youtube video of the fursuit parade from saturday afternoon. It was soo much fun, it made me feel famous with people lining the hallways taking pictures and video. It was like papparazzi and the red carpet lol. I come around the corner around the 1:37 mark :P

Here's a few pics from one of my friends I went with...it's the group shot after the parade ended outside in front of the hotel.



This is the hand drawn badge i ordered friday night and picked up saturday morning. I tagged it onto my ear all weekend!
